"Dirk Behlau is a knock-out photographer and graphic artist from Germany. His style is unique and his images are suberb!" Fuel Magazine (Australia)

"I am sure that your eyes have been drawn to his exciting photographs many times and have stored them in your brain. Photographs that perfectly reflect all aspects of the hot rod scene and the world of rock & roll. His specialty is to go deep into these lifestyles and reflect them from within with total respect, without absurd or forced theatrical features or setting up the fake circus-like scenes that we have become so used to seeing.
Custom Garage (Spain)

"It's a five year dream that has been realized! Finally the cover has been removed from the epic Dickies/Harley Davidson custom bike! Nearly five years ago that Dickies representative Olaf Meinssen met Custom Bike builder and Speedmonsters Garage Owner Malte Kosack and it wasn't long before the idea of a dream bike was being talked about. Both being passionate about two authentic American heritage brands, the Dickies/Harley Davidson was a dream that needed to be realized. Finally under a cloak of intense secrecy, at the beginning of 2013, work started on what would become the Dickies Hard Work custom Shovel head.
Utilizing an original 1954 rigid frame, shovelhead engine, enhanced with other feature parts dating from the 70's and completed with a custom embossed Dickies Hard work saddle. This collaboration with Dickies also celebrates 30 years since Speedmonsters opened its garage doors to building custom dream bikes."
